AND still the attempt to legislate NOR
ais into immoral people goes on despite
the demonstrations of Its impossibility.
Missouri has bill before her legislature
granting divorce for adulrry only. Make
that bill law and the unfortunately we'd
ded who md the burdens of i'll assorted
marriage too grievous to be borne will
be driven to the commission or simula-
ton of adultry to make up case for the
courts. The remedy will not avail. No
restrictions thrown around divorce will
prevent cOniugal unhappiness, and con-
jugal unhsppiness is the sole cause Of
divorce. The remedy lies in some more
intelligent and enlightened ideas of mar
riage, before the act, and in restrictions
imposed by the state upon indiscrimin-
ate and vicious marriages. 1t is the
idea prevailing in society and not the
words written upon the statute book
that governs this marriage and divorce
business.

IT is an exceedingly frosty day when
the democratic Imagination cannot
warm itself in the sun rays Of its own
selfcreated decisions. 1t can find the
very substance of things political in the
most unreal shadows. The hope that en-
dureth all dissppointments is theirs; the
credulity that believes all things, also.
The latest demonstration OF this truth
lies in the nvidity with which respect
able democratic journals seize upon the
canard concerning Conkling. 1t Is now
asserted that he, OF the ambrosial curis.
is to go into the United States senate as
the candidate OF New York democrats
and republicans, to the intent that he
may come out full. fledged democratic
candidate for the presidency in 1888.
This wonderful intelligence is wired to
the New Orleans Times-Democrat as
visitable gospel, and the sweet delusion
that it is true is Rugged to the demo-
cratic bosom like chest protector in
Arctic zones. What the democracy can.
not believe when they want to, has not
yet been made manifest.
